Firefly,
It is much nicer then the blurry pics posted here, but they will have to do for now.

“Is the vacant room w/ the fireplace a basement?”
Yes, half of the basement (over 500 sqft) is semi finished with a real fireplace. Needs a bunch of work, but could be a great family/bonus room.

“…far left, row seven?”
Those are 3 funny little gables on the back of the house. From left to right, they make room for: 1) a master bath, 2) stairwell landing and 3) a small craft room.

“…it look like there’s a noose hanging…”
That’s the master bath with a shower thingy hanging from the ceiling. It needs work and tile :)

“It looks really big, how many bedrooms/baths?”
- First floor: 1000+sqft, 2 bedrooms, kitchen, bath, nook, living room w/ fireplace, dining room. All hardwoods.
- Second floor: 600+ sqft, 2 bedrooms, funny little bath, craft room. Also hardwood.
- Basement: 500 unfinished for utilities, 500 partialy finished w/ fireplace.

+ garage and covered patio
+ .2 acre (60*150 lot) with lots of trees in front and lots of light in back.

We were looking outside the city limits… then we found this place :)

Cheers,
Gabriel

Just reread this…gee, I’m nosy…but I’m so excited for you!!!! Seems to me there’s a good contingent of foot travelers on the NE side, right? You were looking outside the city limits….but this isn’t, I don’t think.

This is beautiful! And a very cool yard to garden in. Is the vacant room w/ the fireplace a basement? I guess it must be, the window’s so high, and it’s good to have some natural light in a basement, nice when it’s only partially below-grade. Lots of nice touches that make homes special. What am I looking at far left, row seven? And why does it look like there’s a noose hanging from the ceiling in pic far right, row five? Just curious….. It looks really big, how many bedrooms/baths? Are the three second story windows bedrooms and maybe an upstairs bath on the left? Nice staircase, to second floor? or from basement?
Will it require lots of work? Paint looks good on the o/s, except for those two boards in back?, I guess. They look kinda hard to get to…The shoulda painted them before they put’em up. I love this….Congratulations! Sorry it’s so far from your job, closer to Sam’s maybe?….when do you close?…when’s moving day?

Thanks, I agree, and plan to let it work itself out.
I make my wine grape, blackberry, and hard apple cider the same way. They don’t take as long as this but turn out well. Some friends added grain alcohol to their scuppernong wine to end fermentation. I tasted it before adding the alcohol and after. The wine was light and crisp before but after it lost the clean crisp qualities.

V. Patrice,
If you left the juice at full strength and added sugar, the brew could be closer in strength to wine – which commonly needs many months to fully ferment. This is double true if it is in a cooler location.

You can use chemicals to stop the fermentation at any time. This will leave some sweetness to the cider.

Personally though, I would just leave it be and see what happens. You can always sweeten it later.

I had a little bit of PHP errors for some reason so I deactivated the plugin. When I went to reactivate it, it came up with a fatal error. I deactivated all my plugins, activated that one first and then the rest and now the plugin works absolutely fantastic!! One last request? I need to be able to add in #fb to get selective tweets working (so it will auto post to facebook fan pages). Any way to have a pre or post (after is best for selective tweets) field? Also, do you take donations?

thank you… Tracy

Tracy,
It should be listed under “Tools”. This may not be the most intuitive place, but it was where Twitpress (which TwitCategory is based upon) put the admin.
